| A smile has never been hard to give
|
| But I have learnt that for some it is
|
| I saw an ad on a bus last night
|
| Two pounds a month could help save a life
|
| But that’s not for some, that’s not for some, it’s only for some
|
| If it’s not for one special someone then it shall be for none
|
| And I’m not sure just how much more of this I can bear
|
| I try to talk to God but it seems even he doesn’t care
|
| I’ve seen the new one he’s building, and my, how he’s made not one mistake
|
| He told me, 'son, I promise you this one will be so much better than the last
|
| one I made'
|
| All my life I’ve tried to fit in
|
| And it’s been hard given the colour of my skin
|
| But that’s okay because I know
|
| That in a thousand years or so
|
| There will be love, there’ll be enough love to cushion all the falls
|
| And wistful thinking never stopped us from wanting it all
|
| But I’m not sure just how much more of this I can bear
|
| I try to talk to God but it seems even he doesn’t care
|
| I’ve seen the new one he’s building, and my, how he’s made not one mistake
|
| He told me, 'son, I promise you this one will be so much better than the last
|
| one I made'
|
| As I walk through the valley of death, I am alone, I am alone
|
| And all those words that you once said, they no longer take me home
|
| As I walk through the valley of death, I am alone, I am alone
|
| And all those words that you once said, they no longer take me home
|
| I am alone, I am alone, I am alone
|
| And I don’t know how much longer I can wait
|
| He told me, 'son, I promise you this one will be so much better than the last
|
| one
|
| It will be so much better than the last one I made' |
